Özet
Introduction: This study investigates the content and construct validity of the Comprehensive International Classification of Functioning,Disability and Health (ICF) Core Set in connection with stroke patients in Turkey. Materials and Method: Brunnstrom Stages, Barthel index (BI) and Ashworth scale scores of the patients were recorded, and the SF-36 was completed by each patient. ICF data were collected via patient interviews and medical records. Content validity was evaluated using the frequency and percentage of patients who had a problem within each category. Spearman correlations were calculated to evaluate the construct validity. Results: In body functions 32 categories were reported as a problem, of which 22 correlated with the BI and 23 with the SF-36 physical component summary (PCS) score. In body structures all categories were problematic; all (except for structures of the cardiovascular system) were correlated with the BI and the SF-36 PCS score. In activities and participation 47 categories were problematic of which 32 correlated with the BI and 37 with the SF-36 PCS score. In environmental factors 7 categories were identified as a barrier and 26 as a facilitator; of these, 2 barriers and 5 facilitators correlated with the BI and the SF-36. Conclusion: In Turkish stroke patients, the components body functions, body structures and activities and participation demonstrated good content and construct validity. Environmental factors need to be further evaluated in different sociocultural environments.
